CarGurus / Fetch Rewards / Flipp Corporation / RoMa LLC / GoodRx / Groupon, Inc. / Krazy Coupon Lady LLC / Rakuten Ebates / ShopSavvy, Inc. 11. CARGURUS If you’re in the market for a new set

of wheels, the CarGurus buyer-seller marketplace has new or used vehicles. The company says it has more than 5 million listings in the U.S. Entering your ZIP code allows you to search by

make, model, body style or keyword. CarGurus rates each offer from great deal to overpriced. It will surface cars that have had recent price drops. The app also allows you to prequalify for

financing. YOU ALSO MIGHT LIKE: Autotrader. 12. FETCH REWARDS Turn paper receipts into points for free gift cards , sweepstakes entries and charitable donations. When you use the app to scan

a receipt from a physical store or e-receipt from more than 250 online retailers , you’ll receive 25 points, plus 1 percent more in points if you bought an item from a participating brand.

The company says 1,000 Fetch points equal roughly $1. You have two weeks to submit receipts, but can’t turn in more than 35 in seven days. Fetch wants to see your shopping habits and won’t

award points for airline, concert or movie tickets; medical and utility bills; and takeout receipts without a restaurant name. 13. FLIPP: DISCOUNT SHOPPING DEALS Many people don’t clip paper

coupons or pore through advertising circulars and flyers like they once did. While you still may receive paper ads and coupons through the mail, Flipp delivers the digital equivalent:

circulars from local grocers, pharmacies and more than 2,000 stores across the country. If you spot a sale price you like, you can clip the deal to your Flipp shopping list through the app

and in some cases to the store’s loyalty card. Flipp will also match digital coupons to in-store offers so you can save more. 14. FREEBIE ALERTS If you like curb alerts from NextDoor or

scour Facebook Marketplace for free stuff, Freebie Alerts gathers your neighbors’ posts from Craigslist, Letgo, Nextdoor, OfferUp and TrashNothing. Though the company doesn’t list Facebook

Marketplace, users say you’ll see alerts for freebies from there, too. Type in your ZIP code and listings start to flow immediately, especially on a weekend in suburbia. The app approximates

the distance you will travel to pick up an item. Click to make a claim and contact the person. If the number of alerts is overwhelming, add keywords to receive notifications only for items

you’re interested in. Post your own giveaways, too. 15. GOODRX: PRESCRIPTION SAVER GoodRx can shave 70 percent off some prescription drug prices , the company says. You can use the coupons

instead of insurance or Medicare Part D but not in combination. Pet meds also have deals. The app may help you find a pharmacy with the best discounts. “It’s a legitimate way to get a much

better price on meds that otherwise aren’t covered that well,” says Stephen Schloss, M.D., a urologist at Emerson Hospital in Concord, Massachusetts. “I’ve used it personally a couple of

times and [asked], ‘Wow, why does it cost so much less because I have this card?’ ’’  YOU ALSO MIGHT LIKE: RxSaver Prescription Discounts, SingleCare. 16. GROUPON Spa treatments, beauty and

fashion items, nightlife, travel — Groupon is all about helping you score promo codes and local deals for these and other aspirations. Savings are up to 70 percent off, Groupon says, though

you’ll want to compare elsewhere to make sure the offer is as good as it appears. Merchants pay fees to Groupon when consumers take advantage of a deal. 17. KCL: COUPONS, DEALS & SAVINGS

The Krazy Coupon Lady clues you in on deals and rebates from your favorite retailers and brands. The app includes coupons, shopping tips and tutorials for people new to couponing, plus the

company says it will coach you on finding deals on other money-saving apps, including Groupon and RetailMeNot. Deal alerts inform you of freebies, including samples and stuff for your

birthday. YOU ALSO MIGHT LIKE: RetailMeNot. 18. RAKUTEN You may already shop at Kohl’s, Macy’s, Michaels, Nike, Nordstrom, Target, Walmart and other well-known retailers. Rakuten, Japanese

for “optimism,” dishes out cashback rewards of 1 percent to 10 percent and sometimes more when you shop at 3,500 stores. Stores pay Rakuten, formerly known as Ebates. Then it shares a

portion with consumers. Be aware: Not every product you buy results in cash back. Shop in person to earn rewards by linking an American Express, Mastercard or Visa. Rewards are paid every

three months via check or to a PayPal account. YOU ALSO MIGHT LIKE: Dosh, Ibotta, Upside. 19. SHOPSAVVY When you scan a product’s barcode or QR code, this app helps you compare local and

online retail prices. Add products you’re keen on to a watch list to be notified of price drops. You also can peek at graphs that show how prices for a product you’re interested in may have

changed over time. But you’ll have to spring for the Pro version to eliminate ads and access other features. The cost of Pro varies by smartphone platform: $19.99 a year, $1.99 a month on

Android; $29.99 a year, $2.99 a month on iOS.
